    It has a free trial, which is very nice if someone just needs temporary access to use, and it's not an expensive program overall. It may not be the most robust program available, but it gets the job done at a good price point. It might not be the best if you need something that allows transcriptionists to collaborate (i.e., working on the same file at the same time).

    Great for meeting with teams that are out of state or working from home. When it's an in-person meeting, I tend to use other AI tools and take notes that then spit out a summary. I really love that you can see previous meeting notes, dated and action items, when scrolling down the page. This way you can follow up, keep people accountable, and track progress.

    Cons
    NCH Software
    • Interface - The look and feel of the software is quite dated and could use a refresh
    • Enhancing audio - When we need to manipulate an audio file to try to enhance it (amplifying, for example), we have to use another program to do so
    • Hotkeys - Setting up hotkeys may not be as intuitive for new users as would be ideal

    • An offline AI recap option so I don't have to dial into the meeting and can still record it.

    Fellow is very easy to use and requires minimal setup. It is very straightforward for a wide range of capability levels, and I love that it also has a calendar view where you can easily find past and future meetings. This is particularly useful when you prepare notes for a future meeting with details you don't want to miss bringing up. Plus, everyone in the meeting can see everyone's notes on one page.

    Fellow is super easy to use, share notes, action items, and summarise meetings. The main perk compared to other programs is that you have everything in one spot and don't have to go looking for information. Everyone can see everyone's notes and the history thread for past and future meetings.

    Return on Investment
    NCH Software
    • Very few 'inaudibles' (spots where we're unable to decipher what was said)
    • Transcribing allows analysts to read scripts rather than listen to audio files, which saves time and money
    • Low cost of software

    • It is hard to measure exact numbers, but I believe we have saved many minutes not having to skim through emails to find action items by just looking up notes from older meetings.
